AUSTIN (KXAN) — A former Austin ISD employee pleaded guilty to property theft in connection with a 2022 district theft case and was sentenced Aug. 12.
According to Travis County court documents, 46-year-old Angelica Williams received a one-year sentence of deferred adjudication.
In Texas, deferred adjudication is a type of probation that allows the person sentenced to keep the conviction off their criminal record.
Documents showed Williams pleaded guilty to theft of property between $100 and $750, which is a Class B misdemeanor.
In addition to deferred adjudication, Williams must complete 80 hours of community service and is now prohibited from working in government.
Former AISD executive Lynn Brennan was also recently sentenced in relation to the district’s theft case. She was given two years’ deferred adjudication after entering a guilty plea.
Williams worked in Brennan’s department, and was listed as a co-defendant in the case. She was originally charged with theft of property greater than $2,500 but less than $30,000, according to court documents.
